Anybody who's been in this community a while is probably familiar with the old Halomods website of yesteryear, before SourceGuy bought the site and trashed it;

There's a copy of the old site prior to the shitstorm that went down. Here's an interesting thing I discovered; PM's are still there. As are old accounts. I personally had a handful of accounts, 2-3, and am very pleased to find old conversations still in there. Might be worth checking out to find some old cringeworthy moments.

I remember being in some Halo sites. Just had a search on google. Sadly, they're defunct now. Very little traces of what once was.

The only memory I have of halomods was the shitty ppf format that everyone wanted everything in.

Hey, sir, with all due respect, go lick a goat.  I had dial-up back then and downloading a 30MB map was completely out of the question if all it did was edit weapons and add some logs in to bloodgulch.  And I wasn't the only one, either.

I did that for a Klondike bar. Don't judge.

I didn't say that people shouldn't have used it. I'm saying that the ppf format sucked, the software sucked, I hated having to use it because it sucked, and I hated that everyone else used it because it sucked. It's understandable that people did use it, because a lot of people were on slow internet connections.

I don't see how it sucked.  Sure, it wasn't good for textures or rebuilt maps.  But it was simple, easy, anyone could use them, and you could even make undo patches which made backups not take as much space.
